Trek into history in the Hocking Hills

We
carried a feature on the history of some of Ohio's first hunters and
fishermen in the Sunday, Nov. 18 paper. The account was vivid and very
interesting as related by Wehyehpihehrsehnhwah, a Shawnee who traces his
ancestors to the area we know now as the Wayne National Forest and
Hocking Hills State Park. In conjunction with Hocking Hills Adventure
Trek, Wehyehpihehrsehnhwah gives live talks about the ways of his people
and delivers them in incredible settings, such as the ancient saltpeter
caves etched into the walls of canyons in the Hocking Hills area. More
information is available at the www.hockinghillsadventuretrek.com
website, or by calling 740-777-2579. The comany also offers guided hikes
with professional naturalists through what is one of the three most bio-diverse regions in the world.
